Episode 245 Sky River -3-
I wonder how they will react?
Are you going to get mad and say I’m rude?
He might lift the river and hit me.
It was when I was sneaking a bite of Manpasikjeok.
[Ahahahaha!]
The goddess of the river burst into cheerful laughter like a child.
[How interesting, human knight. Are you planning to use me as your subordinate?]
“As I said, it’s give and take.”
[hmm…….]
The goddess looked at me with the piercing eyes characteristic of transcendent beings.
Later, the fish-people started causing a ruckus below.
[Human! Isn’t this too much!]
[I saw it well and dared to speak to the goddess!]
[It happened last time too, and it happened this time too!]
[Crrrrr, I can’t stand it!]
[Human! I challenge you to a duel!]
Ignore everything.
I lifted my chin and looked at the goddess.
The goddess who has been watching me for a long time.
As her throat began to hurt, the goddess’s body shook once.
[Human Paladin. No, not a Paladin. Human, you are a warrior, a warrior, a knight, a Paladin, a gunfighter, a craftsman, a psychic, a master of the sword, a lord of fire.]
Even to me, these are fancy adjectives.
Finally, the goddess discovered my identity.
[I have heard of it. The Almighty, yes. The Almighty. It is truly amazing. Who would have thought that I would see with my own eyes the being that is said to have appeared only once in the East thousands of years ago?]
A mental wave that resonates loudly.
Naturally, the noise below also stops.
The fish-people kept their mouths shut and looked at each other in the eye.
Maybe we can have a quiet conversation like [What is the Almighty?] [I don’t know.] and not forget about it?
“That’s right. The Holy Father of the Church of Thor has confirmed that I am the Almighty.”
[Ha… … Almighty, Almighty, I’ve only heard of it, but it’s truly amazing. The magical circuits engraved on your human body. It doesn’t look that old, is that right?]
“Yes. It’s been a little over a year since I became a superhuman.”
[It hasn’t even been a year? Two years? And you’re already at level 7? You’re not even at the beginning of level 7, but it’s already past the middle?]
“I think so too.”
[Ehhhhhh!]
A goddess who makes strange laughter.
The feelings of absurdity and surprise are intense.
I think it’s amazing.
It’s hard for others to even reach level 3 or 4 even after trying their whole lives, but it’s level 7.
That means the trait change and blank body were a scam.
My knowledge of gaming also played a part.
“How about this? Wouldn’t this be helpful to both of us?”
[hmm…….]
“As the Goddess may have noticed, just as you have an enemy named Osiris, I have an enemy named my old father.”
[I felt it. The strong thread of fate that wrapped around you was shaking.]
“The dispute between my old father and me will probably be resolved soon. It will probably take about three or four months. I don’t think it will take more than a year at most. I need a strong ally to fight my old father.”
To put it bluntly, it’s a beggar who uses magic spirits, but the reality is different.
alliance.
A win-win relationship.
The River Goddess helps me with the Sky Boat Magic Spirit, and I help the River Goddess later.
At least level 8 Transcendent.
Maybe by becoming a level 9 constellation.
[How cunning. If I get your help, wouldn’t I have to pull everything out by the roots?]
“It’s that difficult. I also feel burdened by the idea of turning against the Osiris Cult. In fact, if you’re only looking after your own interests, the best way would be to capture the goddess’ children and receive compensation from the Osiris Cult. Isn’t that right?”
[Instead, isn’t there something you want from me too?]
“That’s how life is. Isn’t it high risk, high return?”
[High risk, high return… … That’s also true. Yes. It won’t be possible to escape the current situation with just any means. I will have to use extraordinary methods to save my existence and my children from Osiris, that ugly and selfish monarch.]
The goddess looks down on the fish-people.
The fish-people bowed deeply.
Reverently.
In an extremely solemn manner.
Even the goddess of the river seemed to have made up her mind at that sight.
[Human. I will accept your offer.]
[Goddess!]
[Goddess!]
[Children, listen.]
A compassionate voice.
But there was a firmness that made it impossible to oppose.

[For the next three years. I, the nameless river woman, will assist the human warrior Kim and devote all my strength to his victory. You, the nameless river’s followers, should also serve the human warrior Kim as if you were me and devote all your energy to him.]
[As the Goddess wills.]
[I will obey your command.]
[For the Goddess!]
The fish-people shouted in chorus.
I also placed my hand on my heart and declared solemnly.
“[I, Kim Jeon-sa, accept the Goddess of the River. After three years, I will help you settle down on the river that the Goddess desires. After that, if a conflict or war with Osiris breaks out, I will personally lead and participate in the fight along with the group I lead.]”
Declaration using verbs.
Of course, it cannot be violated.
I have no intention of disobeying you.
It’s really disgusting to take advantage of others and then throw them away.
That’s what happened to me in the original world.
The goddess nodded her head in satisfaction.
[That’s it. I’m already looking forward to three years later.]
“Still, it would be better to build up your strength as much as possible before taking revenge. You are too weak right now.”
[Sure, I think so too. Well, shall we go to my new home?]
The goddess folded her hands over her chest.
Then a blue light spreads from inside the chest.
The magic core exerts its power.
The Nile River immediately responded.
Swaaaah.
The water began to stir.
It evaporates.
The element of water.
The element that forms the bottom of the river, H2O, is not the power and concept of the extremely pure water in magic, but it is rising apart from the river.
It wasn’t just the river.
The same phenomenon occurs in the fog that has been covering the sky until now.
It gradually becomes blurry, and the water element separates and gathers towards the magic core.
In the sky, and in the river.
Phew!
And the light that arises.
The pillar stands.
A pillar of light connects the river goddess and the sky ship.
The transition was instantaneous.
At that moment, when I thought there was a flash of light, the great power I had felt before my eyes transferred to the sky ship.
Woohoo.
Vibrating sky ship.
The color changes.
What was originally painted golden has now turned a bluish color.
The same was true for the gun barrels, missile launchers, and giant radars that poked out from time to time.
Even the wood that made up the hull was turning into water.
The same goes for the shield and the barrier.
Ultimately, the Skyship evolved into a completely different form.
“river?”
A river floating in the sky.
There is no other way to express it.
It’s not a lake.
There was a river flowing mightily across the sky, and a single stream of the river appeared for a moment, creating a strange sight.
[It’s a strange feeling.]
The goddess spoke to me.
[My body has definitely gotten smaller, but my mind feels more expansive.]
of course.
Because that’s magic science.
It’s not for nothing that the people of this world have triumphed over the gods.
Instead, they came to worship gold and magic science as gods.
“It’s called the Sky River.”
[Sky River?]
“Yes. That’s the new name for the ship. Goddess… … I guess I should call you Goddess of the Sky River for a moment.”
[Sky River, Sky River.]
The goddess’s reaction was not bad.
[Indeed. So that’s why it’s called the Sky River.]
Looks like you’ve examined yourself with a magic detector.
[Then I should show you an appearance that suits the Sky River.]
Swish!
The goddess spread her power.
The sky river descends.
The river water spreads out in all directions from the boat floating in the air.
As if it were the tentacles of a deep sea monster.
The water reached the sky and even the surface of the Nile River, which had been frozen until then.
Then the fish-people flew up in excitement.
[let’s go!]
[It’s a new treasure trove!]
[I can live in the body of a goddess!]
[Our ancestors would be jealous if they saw this!]
[Someone go to the village and bring all my people back!]
[Great Migration!]
In the lead were the chairman of the council, the captain of the guard, the wise men, the priests, and the administrators.
They swam up the river and entered the bridge.
Then they took their seats one by one and saluted me.
[Loyalty! I report to you, Captain, that I am the new assault leader!]
[Loyalty! I report to the captain that I am the new deck officer!]
[Loyalty! I report to the captain as a new firearms officer!]
[Loyalty! I report to the captain as a new leader!]
[Loyalty! I am reporting my new supply quota to the captain!]
“Nice to meet you. Just call me Geomseong.”
[Yes! I understand!]
The council chairman, now the assault leader, answered bravely.
The military is very tense.
It was only a few hours ago that you were glaring at me whenever I said something.
Chook, chook!
Fish-men swim upstream like salmon.
Big and small fish people.
They are terribly ugly, but each and every one of them is a powerful superhuman.
As long as you are riding the Sky River, you will boast invincible fighting power.
Their goddess, their mother.
The Goddess of the Sky River will protect the fish-humans.
[ego.]
The goddess took a deep breath.
[Reap the blessings bestowed upon the Nile.]
Write it down.
A long breath.
The Nile is calm.
Instead, the fog above it stirred.
They come from far away and gather around the Sky River.
Thus, a huge cumulonimbus cloud formed.
I stuck out my tongue inwardly.
‘This is so awesome.’
It is the mist of the goddess that even the Osiris cult could not dare to attack.
Now it surrounds the Sky River like a wall.
The range and thickness have definitely been reduced, but the effect is the same.
Blocks magic, reduces vision, and lowers abilities.
Even the old Father’s Sect would not be able to attack the Sky River so carelessly.
What if I complete the [Our House] trait?
Even if Seo Woojin’s land battleship appears, it will be destroyed.
‘It’s a shame that the captain trait doesn’t appear.’
General trait materials are command, order, control, operation, supply, and captain.
The fish people called me their leader and I had high hopes for them, but it seems I’m still lacking.
Still, it seems like there isn’t much left.
My intuition was whispering that to me.
[Black.]
The goddess called me in a deep voice.
[Take this.]
A river that stretches out.
One of them approached me.
It grew long like a squid tentacle and dropped a drop of beautiful jewel.
Drops of the goddess’ blood.
“Thank you. How did you know?”
[Haha. Even though I have fallen, I am a body that once sat on the throne of Egypt. I can recognize this much.]
He treasured every drop of blood.
Since the seal was already in place, there was no need to do anything else.
[My blood is black, is that what you need to become stronger?]
“That’s correct. It’s necessary for my reconstructive elixir. Since I have so many abilities, I need different ingredients to properly utilize them.”
[My blood is treated as an elixir… … Good. Sword Master, if you become stronger, it will benefit me too. I hope you become level 8. No, if you become stronger, become level 9. Then, I will benefit from you.]
“Aren’t you trying to eat it too raw?”
[In return, I will help you as much as you can, Black Star. I guarantee that as long as I am on this ship, no one in this world will be able to harm it. I will also give you a prayer.]
“Origin?”
The sky river shook.
The fish-men all went up.
The river water that had stretched out like tentacles all rushed over my head.
[You, Black Star. You will definitely succeed in reconstructing your body and become level 8.]
Power is concentrated.
A power that cannot be compared to the blessing I received just a moment ago.
The laws of the world are slightly twisted.
In game terms, it’s an experience booster.
It will also slightly reduce the pain when drinking the reconstitution potion.
This wasn’t all.
Immediately after hearing the goddess’s origin.
A strange power was written down and floated before my eyes.
If I drag that text and spit it out, it would make it happen even if it meant distorting the laws of reality.
‘This is a [Origin] trait.’
Could this be called a deteriorated version of [Wish]?
In games, it is used for small amounts of gold, experience, buffs, debuffs, and map lighting.
It wasn’t of much use.
Because the effect was so weak.
But when it comes to wishes, when I become someone who can make wishes, it’s a different story.
“Thank you. It helped me a lot.”
[Even though I am in a bad situation, I can help you with something like this. If you need anything else in the future, just let me know.]
“Yes, Goddess.”
I got everything I wanted from Egypt.
Even the goddess looks tired.
“I have a private jet in the hangar. Could you please take it out?”
[Okay. Hmm? That’s a cool feature. Let me help you out a little.]
A supersonic jet that is launched from the hangar on a river.
A magic runway is laid.
Along the river, up into the sky.
This is truly an aircraft carrier like no other.
In the past, it was just an aircraft carrier in size, but it didn’t have a catapult or anything, so it was impossible to launch an airplane.
“Thank you. Take a rest.”
[Okay.]
I folded the Sky River and put it in my pocket.
The sky ship was originally unable to accommodate living things.
Now, perhaps because the goddess was present, only fish-people could be accommodated.
Unfortunately, Red wasn’t possible.
[Should I come in too?]
“Uh. Stay inside. I’ll call you when I get back to Korea. I’ll prepare the beef.”
[beef!]
Red also returned to Toshi.
Board the private plane immediately afterwards.
The Sky River has disappeared, but the river stream created by the goddess remains intact.
It will probably disappear after a few hours.
Why, why!
A red beam of light shot from the north, scanning the sky.
Fighter planes lined up taking off from the airport.
Helicopters equipped with special equipment search Lake Nasser.
An emergency was declared due to the fog suddenly disappearing.
You’ll soon find out that I did that, right?
It doesn’t matter.
[Knight][Magic Soul][Thor’s Training Method]
[Castle Knight][Island Battle][Air Raid]
A private plane that took off like a lightning bolt.
Because it had already reached its top speed of Mach 4 or higher.
The destination is South Korea.
The town of mutants, the monster village.
A minor deity who gave me a drop of blood and opened up my divine power.
It was time to negotiate with the tree goddess.
